This is an implementation of [JSON Patch](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902) written in PHP.

### Installation via Composer

[](#installation-via-composer)

```
composer require php-jsonpatch/php-jsonpatch
```

### Usage

[](#usage)

Now you can use JSON Patch for PHP via the available Composer **autoload file**.

Patch operations are defined in JSON and bundled in an array. Available JSON Patch [operations](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902#section-4) are `add`, `remove`, `replace`, `move`, `copy`, and `test`; if their mandatory properties are not set a `Rs\Json\Patch\InvalidOperationException` will be thrown.

If necessary you can disable some patch operations by setting a whitelist bitmask in the constructor e.g. `$patch = new Patch($targetDocument, $patchDocument, Add::APPLY | Copy::APPLY | Replace::APPLY | Remove::APPLY);`. This will not allow the usage of the `move` and `test` patch operation from the patch document. If used these operations are ignored. The default is to allow all patch operations.
